For example I called the urology clinic the other day, and they said "Can you hold?"

I went to the hospital with back pain (I’m a septuagenarian). I saw a lot of medical types. A young nurse said matter of factly, I have to give you two shots in the backside. Please turn around and lower your pants just a bit. I won’t look. I said, you are gonna poke me with two sharp objects and you’re not gonna look. She said I’m a sharpshooter. I thought it was time for me to quit. However whatever they did worked. God Bless those who work in health care.

I see your first vote was for Nixon in 68. My first was by mail from boot camp in 72. Sadly, I committed a youthful indiscretion and voted for dick as well. I remember the slogan - Don’t change Dicks in the middle of a screw vote for Nixon in 72.

Yes Medical jokes are treasures.

It's not true that married men live longer than single men. It only seems longer.

I’m married and have been so for more than a half a century. Hmmmmm. But incredibly happily so. She’s been spoiling me rotten for no apparent reason since Nixon resigned.
